China Food Ingredients Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Description
The China food ingredients market reached approximately USD 26.26 Billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.50% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of around USD 54.12 Billion by 2034.
China Food Ingredients Market Growth
The rising trend of health and wellness, rise in disposable income, and increased demand for natural and healthy food ingredients are some of the crucial market drivers. Moreover, rapid urbanisation has led to a high demand for processed and convenient food products, thereby driving the demand for ingredients that can enhance the taste and preservative quality of food.
Technological innovations such as the incorporation of microbial-based food ingredients are on the rise. For instance, microbial-derived food ingredients utilise microorganisms like bacteria, yeast, and algae for the production of food ingredients and this method is becoming increasingly popular for its ability to develop sustainable, nutritious, and functional food items.
There is an increased demand for plant-based food ingredients due to rising health consciousness and environmental awareness. Consumers are seeking out clean-label items that are devoid of additives, hormones, and antibiotics, prompting manufacturers to prioritise natural and clean-label ingredients.
